Hmmmm…..Just when you thought it was gone for good, winter is making a comeback in Ontario.

Warnings

North Bay – Powassan – Mattawa
3:39 PM EDT Friday 07 May 2010
Snowfall warning for
North Bay – Powassan – Mattawa issued

Very late season heavy snow overnight and Saturday.

An intensifying low pressure system tracking up from Illinois across Lake Huron into Eastern Ontario will bring a late season heavy snowfall to Northeastern Ontario.

Rain ahead of this system will move in this evening then change over to snow by morning as brisk northeasterly winds draw in cold Arctic air.

Latest indications suggest that 15 cm of snow will fall in a 6 to 12 hour period across North Bay and Sudbury and possibly as far north as Earlton by Saturday afternoon.

The snow will taper off to scattered wet flurries in the wake of the storm centre later on Saturday.

Motorists should be prepared for dangerous winter driving conditions from very low visibility in heavy snow and possible snow accumulation on the roads.

Darn and I just put my snowblower away, well…………I refuse to bring it back out, just going to have to melt on its own.

My weather station is currently having some problems uploading to our personal web site.  In order to compensate for the problem all the data is taken directly from our home here in Port Loring and directed to Weather Underground.  Just click on the Port Loring Link On the Left of the screen down near the bottom and you will be directed to our data.  Until the problem if corrected this will be our official site for the weather here in Port Loring and a surrounding area of around fifty miles.  All sensors still working.  Or this link will take you there also. Just copy and paste.
